Disgraced Jordan Sebuliba Kiwanuka, who claims to be a biological son of Kampala businessman Mohan Musisi Kiwanuka, has for the second consecutive attempt, lost the case which he filed against his alleged father at High Court Family Division where he sought orders to run the defendant’s line of businesses.
According to the petition, Jordan Sebuliba Kiwanuka, alleged that Mohan Kiwanuka was suffering from a debilitating and degenerative condition of Alzheimer’s or dementia, which is presumed to have been progressive over the last six or so years but has become quite severe and imposing on the respondent’s health in the recent past.
Sebuliba asked court to subject the respondent to a medical examination and if it is established that the respondent was of mind then the applicant be appointed as a Personal representative/Manager of the Estate of the respondent.
Appearing before Makindye Family Court yesterday, Justice Godfrey Namundi, ruled that Mohan is quite in order and has jotted several letters supporting his (Jordan) visa applications to various countries and has looked after him on top of paying his tuition fees throughout school.
“Court interviewed him (Kiwanuka) and he spoke softly, sometimes bringing jokes. His lawyers and those of the respondent were present and in one session, I interviewed him alone, one-on-one. Court’s judgment is that he has no problem and this case is dismissed,” he ruled.
Justice Namundi ordered Jordan to pay rent for the 10 years he occupied Seven Trees Gardens located in Kololo along Dundas Road without Mohan’s permission and tasked him to account for billions of cash he has been receiving from tenants for that time.
Also in August, Jordan lodged a case against Mohan, claiming that the respondent was suffering from a debilitating and degenerative condition of Alzheimer’s or dementia, which is presumed to have been progressive over the last six or so years but has become quite severe and imposing on the respondent’s health in the recent past.
To his dismay, high court judge Sekaana Musa, dismissed the application and ordered both parties to meet their costs.
After Justice Sekaana’s ruling, Mohan, said it all started from a disagreement over one of his properties, Seven Trees Gardens located in Kololo along Dundas Road that Sebuliba had occupied without his permission, a vice that had never been done by any of his siblings. He has occupied the property for the past 10 years without remitting any monies to Mohan nor paying rent for the facility.
He said Jordan used to rent out the venue for parties among other events and earned over Shs600 million every year and went ahead (Sebuliba) to ask court to compel his father to pay him shs1.6 billion for him to leave the premises.
“What amuses me is the person (Sebuliba) fighting over my property when I’m still alive is not my biological son. I raised him as my son. I even took him to good schools, including to a University in UK from where he studied his law degree,” he said.
Recently, Mohan said Beatrice Luyiga Kavuma Kiwanuka the mother of the indiscipline son, Jordan, was impregnated by a man from western region when she attended a conference in Entebbe. He said he noticed that she was pregnant and asked her to do a DNA for the baby (Sebuliba). However, Beatrice declined convincing him that the baby belongs to him and tossed him till he decided to look after him as his son.
